It is common to Pay for Blepharoplasty Surgery Upfront?

My physician is asking me to pay the full sum of a blepharoplasty 'up front', two weeks before the surgery. Is that legit and common?

Payment of Cosmetic Surgery

Thanks for the question - Typically payment for cosmetic procedures is required prior to surgery. Most practices have cancellation policies to deal with the need to reschedule, postpone or cancel surgery. Be sure to ask prior to deciding on surgery. I hope this helps.

Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) removes excess skin, muscle, and sometimes fat from the upper and/or lower eyelids. Upper blepharoplasty addresses hooding that can impair peripheral vision. Lower blepharoplasty targets under-eye bags and puffiness. Recovery is relatively quick, with most patients returning to normal activities within 7–10 days.

Board certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery requires years of specialized surgical training beyond medical school and residency.
